Newcastle Shrub Trimming (Sides & Top) Services
Are you ready to give your Newcastle property a boost in curb appeal? Our sides and top trimming services will have your hedges looking immaculate and sharp, banishing those ragged edges and unsightly clippings. We’re all about precision, ensuring a gentle taper at the bottom so everything stays lush and green. And don’t worry about the mess—we’ll clean up and haul away all debris when we’re done.
What’s the Problem?
- Hedges bulging over sidewalks, stairs, and driveways can create an eyesore and even a safety hazard.
- Wavy tops and uneven heights from previous hasty trims leave a less-than-professional appearance.
- Windows, house numbers, and outdoor lights can get lost in overgrown greenery.
- Other crews may leave clippings everywhere, calling it a job well done.
Our Trimming Standard (Sides + Top)
Our commitment to quality means:
- Set the height line — we ensure a tight, level top that looks straight from the curb.
- True verticals with slight taper — wider at the base to keep your hedge healthy and flourishing.
- Clean corners & ends — no “puffy” returns or ragged edges.
- Sightlines cleared — ensuring paths, windows, numbers, and fixtures are all visible.
- Full cleanup — we rake/blow and haul off debris, finishing with a tidy bed edge.
Quick tip: some shrubs bloom on old wood. If you want to keep those flowers, we can schedule trims post-bloom while still keeping the sides & top looking crisp.
What We Trim All Season
We cater to a variety of shrubs, including:
- Laurel, privet, photinia, Portuguese laurel
- Boxwood, yew, holly (with care), hebe
- Rhododendrons, azaleas, camellias (light shaping outside bloom window)
- Mixed “front-of-house” hedges and foundation shrubs
Our Annual Maintenance Plan
With our annual maintenance plan, you’ll enjoy:
- Shape holds — light touch-ups to keep lines tight without heavy pruning.
- Bloom-aware timing — we’ll trim at the best time to preserve next season’s flowers.
- Bed tidy — a fresh edge around hedges to enhance the overall look.
- Irrigation sanity — a quick check ensures fresh cuts don’t scorch during dry spells.
We’re here for low-maintenance landscaping. Fewer issues between visits mean less work for you!
Service Cadences
Choose the timing that suits your needs:
- Bi-Monthly — perfect for fast-growing and front-yard hedges.
- Quarterly — includes spring/fall deep shaping plus two tune-ups.
(For heavy growth or first-time rehabs, we recommend starting monthly for 60–90 days, then tapering off.)
What Annual Maintenance Includes
Expect the following with our annual maintenance:
- Sides-and-top trims to your specified height and width.
- A slight taper to prevent shade-burn and encourage healthy growth.
- Bed edge crisping and debris haul-off at every visit.
- Photo updates to keep you informed about how sharp your hedges stay.
Why Annual Maintenance Matters
Maintaining your shrubs provides incredible benefits:
- Instant curb appeal — straight lines create a clean look that impresses.
- Safer access — clear paths, stairs, and driveway views for safety.
